Healthy Berry & Yogurt Tart

I bought one too many cartons of strawberries from the market last week and didn't realize it until today. I took all of them out of the fridge and stared at them for a good 10 minutes before I decided what I was going to do with them. By the way, when you buy strawberries, especially the organic ones, you have to be careful as they are full of dirt and can carry a lot of bacteria. The way I handle strawberries is I usually take the green tips off, place them in a deep bowl, and rinse them off really well with cold water. Finally I cut the top portion off where the leaves were attached and I let them soak in cold water for about 10 minutes to make sure they get squeaky clean. Once they're done being soaked I drain them in a colander and lay them out on some paper towel to dry. You shouldn't wash the berries until you're ready to eat them. 

Ingredients:

1 cup chopped strawberries

1/2 cup sliced blackberries

2 cups dry old-fashion oats

3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder

4 tbsp organic agave nectar (separated into 3 and 1)

2 tbsp coconut/almond milk blend

1/2 tbsp baking powder

1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt

2 tbsp Light Kefir Cheese

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a mixing bowl; oats, unsweetened cocoa powder, and baking powder. Add the water, milk, and 3 tbsp of agave nectar to the dry ingredients and form a dough. Grease a flat baking pan with butter, spread the dough into a 9-inch circle (1/2 inch thick) and bake for 15 minutes. While it's baking make the yogurt spread. Mix together the nonfat plain yogurt, light kefir cheese, and 1 tbsp agave nectar. When the tart is finished cooking let it cool completely before adding the yogurt. Spread the yogurt mixture evenly and top with strawberries and blackberries. Drizzle some more agave nectar on top for taste. Place in the fridge for at least an hour, then cut into slices and serve :)
